Raven

Insomniac Games knows how to create imaginative weapons. It’s one of the developer’s calling cards. Go through the team’s body of work with the likes of Ratchet and Clank and the Resistance franchises, and players will see weapons like the Auger, an alien firearm that shoots through walls, or the Chimp-o-Matic, a gun that turns targets into chimpanzees.

That same level of creativity is going into Fuse, a new IP from the Burbank-based developer. I had a chance to play the campaign of the four-player co-op game at a recent EA preview event. I played as Naya Devereaux, who is the stealth character of the group. In the short demo that players experienced, the group of misfit agents, Overstrike 9, are in the Karakoram Mountains in Pakistan, chasing after an organization called Raven that has taken these alien Fuse weapons.
